Tea Tips

How To Brew Tea

How to brew the perfect cup of tea every time, whether its from a tea pot, single cup infuser or a glass infuser bottle on the go … we have got you covered.

TEA POT

Tea pots are a great way to brew the perfect cup of tea. The loose tea leaves have more room for expansion and circulation than any enclosed infuser, allowing the tea leaves to expand and circulate for a full-bodied infused tea.

INSTRUCTIONS:
Step 1

Fill your kettle with fresh cold water and bring to the boil.

Step 2

Pour a little of the hot water into your teapot and swirl to warm it up – this keeps the teapot at the optimum temperature for the tea. Empty the pot.

Step 3

Add your tea leaves – one teaspoon per cup is the rule of thumb. Pour the boiled water onto the tea.

Step 4

Allow to steep for three to five minutes. Stir, and if your teapot doesn’t have a built-in strainer, use one to pour into your teacup.

TEA INFUSERS

The perfect tea accessory that you can take anywhere and brew the perfect cup of your favourite tea.

INSTRUCTIONS:
Step 1

Fill your kettle with fresh cold water and bring to the boil.

Step 2

Fill the bottom half of the infuser with your tea leaves, then connect back together ensuring it is fastened properly.

Allow to infuse for three to five minutes. Remove the infuser from the cup and enjoy!

*Please note, some tea infusers have holes that are too big allowing the tea leaves to escape from the infuser. The leaves themselves are harmless, however if you are not wanting floating tea leaves, ensure your infuser has smaller holes.
GLASS INFUSER BOTTLES

The must have tea ware accessory! Make up your tea and take with you on the go – perfect for hot to cold teas.

INSTRUCTIONS:
Step 1

Fill your kettle with fresh cold water and bring to the boil.

Step 2

Take the lid off your glass infuser bottle and remove the stainless infuser. Open the infuser and spoon in your favourite tea. Screw the infuser lid back on ensuring the lid has been fastened securely.

Step 3

Click the infuser back in the glass bottle and carefully pour the the boiled water into the bottle allowing the water to filter through the infuser.

Step 4

Once the glass infuser bottle is full, you can replace the top on your bottle and take with you on the go and enjoy OR if you are wanting to make a ice tea, simply put your bottle with the infused tea into the fridge and allow to chill.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Some teas contain caffeine, which needs to be kept under 200mg a day during pregnancy. As a guide, expect a cup of white tea to contain around 15mg per cup, Green Tea 20mg per cup and Black Tea 45mg per cup.

Cacao also contains some caffeine. These teas and cacao also have significant health benefits through their polyphenols and antioxidants so can be part of a healthy pregnancy diet, as long as you are aware of your caffeine intake.

For women who love their Chai Teas, Rooibos Chai is perfect, as it is caffeine free and has no Star Anise. Star Anise is considered safe in small amounts in tea. In pregnancy you would avoid the essential oil of Star Anise or a concentrate.

Choc Chai, Green Chai and Masala Chai have some caffeine and a little Star Anise in them, but as a portion of food in small amounts, Star Anise is considered safe.

Cinnamon Apple: cinnamon in pregnancy has many benefits as a food. Just avoid cinnamon oil or concentrated cinnamon supplements.

Balance: contains some spearmint and peppermint. Peppermint is very helpful in pregnancy, while spearmint can be used in moderation in pregnancy, and a cup or 2 a day may help morning sickness. Our Tea for Two blend contains spearmint and may be considered safe in pregnancy when taken in moderate amounts eg. 1-3 cups a day.

Lavender is best avoided during pregnancy in medicinal quantities. It is generally considered safe in a tea form, but may possibly be unsafe, so we don’t recommend it in pregnancy.

Lemongrass is also best avoided in pregnancy due to its ability (in high doses) to initiate menstrual flow. It is excellent in breastfeeding though.

Frequency Asked Questions

Peppermint and Spearmint need to be avoided during breastfeeding in excessive amounts as they can limit milk supply in some women. Small amounts are okay.

Some teas contain caffeine, which should be kept to under 300mg a day during breastfeeding or less if you know your baby is sensitive to the caffeine you drink. As a guide, white tea contains 15mg of caffeine per cup, green tea 20mg per cup and black tea 45mg per cup. Cacao has some caffeine in it, so keep this in mind for your overall caffeine intake each day.

Lavender is considered as safe as a flavouring in tea during breastfeeding.

Lemongrass, while not recommended in pregnancy, is beneficial in breastfeeding in aiding milk production.

Holy Basil or Tulsi (in Sanctuary) is not recommended when breastfeeding and as there are no studies done for breastfeeding.

It is best to avoid spicy and strong flavoured teas like chai (Masala Chai, Choc Chai, Green Chai and Sunshine Smoothie) as they can affect the "taste" of your breastmilk.

Vegan Friendly

All our Teas are Vegan. They do not contain any animal products, nor do they contain any animal bi-products.

Nut Allergies

None of our Tea range contains any traces of nuts. They are also crafted in a kitchen that does not process nuts.

Business

Organic Certfication

Clean Tea uses only certified organic herbs and fruits from Australia Organic Certified supplier 274P. We use a mixture of local and imported goods, carefully hand blended in an organic environment in our factory in Byron Bay.

TGA Information

The plant kingdom is an abundant and rich resource for anyone interested in maintaining health and preventing disease. Herbs and herbal teas are a part of that wonderful resource.

Herbs taken as a tea, don’t act as a direct medicine, but as a gentle support for health and healthy function. They form part of our “food” and have been celebrated as such for centuries.

Herbal teas are a safe and gentle way to access the properties of the herbs, as part of our diet.

Herbal medicine, which concentrates the active ingredients of the herb or plant into a herbal tincture, is very different. It needs TGA approval for use and requires a prescription from a professionally trained and qualified Herbalist.

The Therapeutic Goods Administration clearly states that: “Generally a product that is swallowed will be either one form of a therapeutic good (a medicine) or a food.

Often, claims made about a product or the appearance of the product may suggest that it is a therapeutic good. However, the fact that health claims are made about a product does not automatically make it a therapeutic good.”

Therefore, all teas made by Clean Tea are deemed a food with therapeutic benefits and are not medicine nor required to be registered with the TGA.
